Theatrical by Maggie Harcourt
'The UK's answer to Rainbow Rowell' Lucy Powrie Hope is happiest out of the spotlight, working backstage at her local theatre, so she can't believe her luck when she lands a top internship on a major show. However, with a Hollywood star cast in the lead, and his young understudy upstaging Hope's heart, she soon wishes life would stick to the script. Hope has to prove she's got what it takes. But with a big secret and so much buzz around the show, it isn't long before Hope finds herself centre stage... A Hollywood star, a top director, a sold-out show, a major crush...and a girl with everything to prove.
This book is so friggin' cute you guys, I can't evenI'm well out of the target age range for young adult novels but I swooned hard over protagonist's Hope's crush Luke, let me tell you that. And Hope herself was such a great main character...If you're already a very stagey person you'll also love the insight you'll get into the inner workings of putting on a play. And if not, you'll be converted to a theatre geek by the end of it. * Page to stage reviews theatre and book blog *
This pacey novel romps through the highs and lows of essential-but-shadowy back stage support and front of stage theatrics and personality dramas. The story arc moves well and different plot strands peak and trough with a pleasing narrative pace and resolution. * Armadillo *
The true love at the heart of this book is for the magic of theatre, which Harcourt captures magnificently. * Stage magazine *
